Apologies for the shameless plug, but if any of you are Queen fans, then have a look at Queen: Rock the World on BBC4 at 9pm tonight. I'm usually a film editor and have worked on the last several Queen documentaries, but this is my first as sole director!

It's almost entirely archive, mainly unseen, of their 1977 tour of America, assembled from 16mm rushes of a documentary shot at the time that was never put together.

It has just finished on BBC4

Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant!

It is sooooo refreshing to see new footage instead of all the stock footage we get of the band.

Well done Chris and the team. A job VERY well done!
